Note This list is incomplete. I've only currently looking at doing all posts started November 2012 or later, so if your post was started before that point I've excluded it for now. In addition I'm only on page 9 at the moment (started at 18) and I'm moving towards page one. So hopefully I should be able to get all the recent threads listed this way eventually.

In theory there may be some overlap between this and the externalisation request list.

Due to a limit in the number of characters allowed in any post I've had to split the list up. If you are interested in the other three posts you can find the lists for Graphics and Graphical User Interface here, as well as the list for User Help and Other Suggestions here, and finally the second part of Gameplay as well as Sound here.

    I finally had to break up the Gameplay thread because it was just too big :D

    Nice job gathering the threads like this! *thumbs up*
  • DeeDee Member Posts: 10,447
    I've stickied these, and I've also edited the thread titles so that they'll (mostly) fit on one line each.

    Should be easier for people looking for the appropriate threads.

    I've indefinitely delayed working on this (and all of my feature request lists) due to the deletion of Samus's feature requests. She had probably 30 requests that I read (so no doubt many more). Many of which were at the very least interesting ideas that didn't warrant a deletion. I don't mind occasionally spending my free time working on these lists but if you are just going to go about deleting (in this case at least 30 of the requests I've listed) the moment anyone is banned why would I bother? Its one thing to ban her, its another to (months after she was banned) delete everything.

    Thanks for the links but I'm not working on this anymore.
  • AntonAnton Member, Moderator, Mobile Tester Posts: 513
    Than I should tag @Dee
  • Dark_AnsemDark_Ansem Member Posts: 992
    I for one would like the possibility for modders to update the rules to 3.5 or next, so that kind of data should be accessible. @Dee or others, is that possible?
